Think " Healthy & Yummy" for Appetizers~ Recipe

I love a great, creamy, salty, sumptuous appetizer as much as anyone. However, it is easy to get all of those preferences in a healthier way. Just because we want to eat 'heathier and less' does not mean we can't have all the flavor and enjoyment in our food. Remember, too, that you eat with your eyes first. So, making a great looking appetizer or any dish can entice you to want to eat it.

This is a great spin on a simple veggie platter. Crudites have been a great 'starter' for a long time. Now we can make it even healthier using low fat sour cream, yogurt, cream cheese, or hummus for the dips. Put the veggies together in this platter, or in this larger woven basket for big parties for an unusual presentation and make it even more appealing. Use these glass bowls with lids for your dips. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge quickly and air-tight.
